Hello Everyone,

I noticed something in some packet dumps that I haven't seen before.  I'm not sure what to make of it.  What I'm seeing is an ACK/RST packet with a "Reset Cause" entry that looks like is filled with some errant HTML.  It doesn't look nefarious, but it strikes me as odd.  A quick look at surrounding packets and he browser agent is Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1) and the server is IIS6.  Has anyone else seen similar packets and offer an explanation?

Thanks!

John.
